Wow, nice work. I liked this a bit more than the judges did, although they gave pretty good marks. The texture here is gorgeous, and the genre adaptation you pulled is pretty darn nifty. The soundscape is immense. I love the compositional choices of the various times for breakdowns and when to throw in the chorus, especially at 3:15 and 3:40.

As I've probably already said elsewhere (many times), I am already a big fan of this song, as well as DistantJ as an artist in particular. I guess this started a while back with the song's predecessor aka one of my favourite songs ever...but anyway, lucky for me this one is better in almost every respect, so good call on giving the mix a revival. I usually don't like it when the source material is too sparse, so fortunately I am happy to report that many parts of the song contain familiar segments. I can't really comment on any technical aspects so I'll stop there.

BTW, you should spend this much time on all your mixes if the result is them sounding this good (production wise I mean...XTC Hill Zone didn't sound as polished but what an insane song nevertheless...)

Final note: why does this beginning remind me of a hybrid level of marble zone and Aquatic Ruin (Sonic 2)
maybe that's a good thing...

Got this from VGMix some time back now. I admit, first time I listened to it, I wasn't too thrilled. Then I listened again, and it grew on me from there.

This is one track I don't skip past, and have left on repeat for the better part of an hour on several occasions. F*cking awesome work DistantJ.

Easy 7 (>85%)

Congratulations for your first song on OCR, DistantJ. I already knew you could do that.

Sitar? Hahah, it was very cool with the chinese flute as well. Good use and selection of drums. The synths working around are a nice shot. Everything sounds great for me. I especially love electronic/ethnic pieces. Look at the arrangement on Marble Zone Theme, very unique.

This is my favourite mix of DistantJ. This is also his best stuff. I saw how the effort was proposed. Keep up the good work!

well, sam...congrats!

Mmm...yes. The E-MU shakahuchi might grate on some, but I gots no probs wit it, because it will forever remind me of Ibuki's stage in 3rd Strike.

Anyway, congrats, DistantJ! Great treatment of the original. Can never have enough good Marble Zone mixes. :)
